This blog won't reduce scoptophilia to its moral majority definition of "watching others engaging in sexual activity" neither to its Freudian definition of "someone taking pleasure in submitting others to the control of his/her look", but will use it in its Greek acception: "the love of looking". Moralists and Psychoanalysts keep away.

Sarah Small - Surface Magazine / 10 Year Avant Guardian Issue (2008)

Another series from this great artist. Here some shots done for a a magazine called Surface, an "American magazine of global contemporary design" as they write on their site (here). They must be thanked to have accepted these images (young dressed models with old naked people) since honestly I doubt many others would have. Like in all her work, nudity has a purity and a sane dimension, even sensual, in these images, resulting from technical visual options but also the talent she has to make her models "sound" natural and look "partie prenante" of the process. I really dig this woman. Her site here and a previous post on this blog there.
